Toyota Venza Service Manual / U660e Automatic Transmission / Transaxle / Differential Case / Disassembly

DISASSEMBLY

PROCEDURE

1. REMOVE FRONT TRANSAXLE CASE OIL SEAL

(a) Using SST, remove the front transaxle case oil seal from the transaxle housing.

SST: 09308-00010

2. REMOVE TRANSAXLE CASE OIL SEAL

(a) Using SST, remove the transaxle case oil seal from the transaxle case sub-assembly.

SST: 09308-00010

3. INSPECT FRONT DIFFERENTIAL CASE

4. INSPECT FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR THRUST AMOUNT

5. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL RING GEAR

(a) Put matchmarks on the front differential ring gear and front differential case.

(b) Remove the 12 bolts from the front differential ring gear.

6. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL PINION SHAFT STRAIGHT PIN

(a) Secure the front differential case in a vise between aluminum plates.

NOTICE:

Do not overtighten the vise.

(b) Using a 5 mm pin punch and a hammer, remove the front differential pinion shaft straight pin from the front differential case.

7. REMOVE FRONT NO. 1 DIFFERENTIAL PINION SHAFT

(a) Remove the front No. 1 differential pinion shaft from the front differential case.

8. INSPECT FRONT DIFFERENTIAL PINION BACKLASH

9. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR

(a) Install SST as shown in the illustration and tighten it.

09953-05010

NOTICE:

Do not overtighten SST, as doing so will damage the front differential side gears, conical springs, front No. 1 differential side gear thrust washers and front differential case.

HINT:

Tighten SST until there is clearance between the front differential pinions and front differential side gears.
When removing the front differential pinions, do not overtighten SST, as it is necessary to rotate the front differential side gears.

(b) Install SST as shown in the illustration, rotate the front differential side gear, and then remove the 2 front differential pinions and 2 front differential pinion thrust washers from the front differential case.

*2	Conical Spring
*3	Front No. 1 Differential Side Gear Thrust Washer

NOTICE:

Do not drop the front differential side gear, front No. 1 differential side gear thrust washer or conical spring.

10. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL CASE FRONT TAPERED ROLLER BEARING

(a) Using SST, remove the front differential case front tapered roller bearing (inner race) from the front differential case.
